This extension of a buy-side desk model brings access to a skilled trading team that is solely focused on best timing and outcomes. To achieve this, our proprietary O’Neil Methodology allows us to identify and monitor key inflection points where single stocks, indices, and ETFs are progressing out of well-defined periods of buyer-seller equilibrium and are about to embark on a new up/down trend.
All the while, we provide real-time trading consultancy to help in the timing of rolls, strike optimization, volume capture strategies, delta hedging, and stock replacement strategies. With over 60 years’ experience on the buy-side and sell-side, our traders will own the order alongside you and stay in contact throughout the duration of your holdings to assist in strategizing for maximum gains. In options trading this provides a significant edge that is unique to O’Neil, our clients consistently say that no one else on the Street is doing what we are doing. Our aim is uncomplicated, we collaborate with our clients to assist them in generating outsized returns.
